…cutting leaves significant mechanical stress in the finished edge. (In fact, it becomes difficult to use mechanical cutting at all with substrates below about 1 mm in thickness because the glass is so easily broken). To prevent further cracking or breaking of the glass after the original cut, it may…

…laser with only 9W of output power produced this clean, curved cut (6 mm radius circle) in thin glass (50 µm thick) at a feed rate of 140 mm /sec. Laser Ablation Laser ablation relies on a completely different mechanism to process glass than CO2 and CO lasers, which utilize thermal shock to create a…
